Hi friends. Alanna here on the blog with you today with a quick and easy Christmas card to share with you today. I don't know about you but sometimes I feel like images that need to be colored need to have a lot of time taken in coloring the image. But for Christmas cards, we don't always have that kind of time.
On my card today, I stamped the image from the Sketchy Holly set from Craft Consortium onto white cardstock with alcohol friendly black ink using my Misti. Note that the stamp comes with the coordinating die which is amazing.
After my image was stamped, I took my OLO markers and quickly colored in the image, just adding a touch of shading. I then put my panel back into my Misti and stamped the image again, this time using my favorite Versafine Claire Nocturne ink. I love how crisp this makes the image.
I then trimmed this panel down and added splatter with some mica spray from my stash. I added the sentiment which is from the Season's Greetings Wordies Sentiments Sheets from Creative Expressions. These are so nice as there are lots of sentiments with both black and white backgrounds, perfect for your holiday cardmaking.
After my sentiment was added, I added my panel to a piece of black cardstock, trimmed slightly larger. This was then added to a white A2 notecard to finish off the card.
Find these products I used below in the Topflight Stamps store.
Crafty hugs! ~ Alanna
